“Highland chicken is delicious. It's stuffed with haggis. The mash could use some salt, but maybe that's because I'm not a local. This was my first taste of haggis & I'd have it again.”
“Our meal was excellent ! We took the vegetarian haggis and the Mac N Cheese, it was delicious.The waiters was very kind. The place is beautiful and very fast service.”
“Lovely pub with wonderful staff! I couldn’t wait to order the vegan fish & chips as I read positive things about it. Though the structure/texture was quite nice, I thought the taste of the ‘fish’ was pretty bland.. Overall, nice place, but I hope that they work a bit more on perfecting their vegan fish!”
“Had the traditional haggis 14.5£, they also tack on an optional service charge to the bill It's the best I've had, it's quite well seasoned and was thus more flavourful than the rest of the nonsense I've had previously. The texture of the haggis was a bit on the sticky side. Neeps and tatties were good too, whisky cream sauce tasted like a generic jus Service was pleasant”
“Had a quick late night dinner here. Live music was fabulous. I was happy to try the vegetarian Haggis so I can at least say I tried it. It was on nachos and very tasty! Bangers and mash were good as well. Servers were friendly.”
